"According to the initial iteration of the United States' 28-point plan for ending the war in Ukraine, Kyiv would be required to completely relinquish Donbas, comprised of the regions of Donetsk and Luhansk, to de-facto Russian control. This would include those parts of the region not currently occupied by Russia, which would be designated a "demilitarized zone" and would also effectively come under Russian control. After fierce criticism from Kyiv and Europe, the proposals are now being revised"
"According to the regional military administration, around 200,000 people still live there despite regular shelling. More and more evacuations Anastasia Machnyk, who volunteers as a hotline dispatcher run by the Ukrainian Road of Life aid project, told DW that so far there had not been much talk about the peace proposal among the residents of Donbas, but that over the past weeks, more and more people had asked to be evacuated from the cities of Kramatorsk and Sloviansk."
An initial US 28-point peace plan would have required Ukraine to cede Donbas — Donetsk and Luhansk — to de-facto Russian control, including unoccupied areas designated as a demilitarized zone. Fierce criticism from Kyiv and Europe prompted revisions and led to US–Ukrainian talks in Florida after US envoy Steve Witkoff met Vladimir Putin in Moscow. Ukraine currently controls about a quarter of Donetsk, where roughly 200,000 civilians remain amid regular shelling. Evacuations have increased, with aid volunteers reporting more families seeking evacuation and expressing disbelief that the government would abandon populated areas.
